The single-unit abutment is connected to the implant immediately after
implant placement or implant uncovering. The single-unit abutment’s size is
chosen according to the transgingival height. Once connected, the single-unit
abutment and the implant function as one integrated unit
(One Abutment - One Time).

All the prosthetic steps are carried out at tissue level. This is a significant advantage
both to patient and dentist.

The concave profile of the single-unit abutment enables maturation of the soft
tissue in a thicker and stable form.

As the single-unit abutment is a solid piece (no screw hole), it eliminates
penteration of any bacteria and other contaminants to the implant-abutment
interface.

The crown can be either screw-retained to the single-unit abutment or cemented
over an abutment that is screw-retained to the single unit.
